Automatically opens external links in a new tab

This plugin is very convenient because after installation it automatically opens external links in a new tab, without requiring extra configuration. It smartly ignores email (mailto) and phone (tel) links, so only real external hyperlinks are affected.

I tested it along with a WordPress automatic internal links plugin and a WordPress plugin auto internal link setup, and there were no conflicts at all. Internal links remain untouched while external URLs correctly open link in a new tab.

If you are using an auto internal linking plugin WordPress website and want a clean solution to manage external links, this plugin works perfectly for open in new tab WordPress functionality. Lightweight, automatic, and SEO-friendly.

Thank Codious Technologies for building a simple and effective solution.
